We sell a lot of bucket helmets and in terms of your life or ongoing quality of life they are absolute minimum. My recommendation as a minimum though is always a 3/4 and while we have loads of options the LS2 Verso and the Copter since offer great eye and good face protection. Worth the extra money over a bucket for the piece of mind. Ironically customers often comment it’s too much or will be too hot. These are vented and a bucket is not. Not only far better protection but also exponentially more comfortable.
